Self Portraits "Song of the Mavka" πΏ Part 6
Added 2025-11-22 17:00:05 +0000 UTCAnd here it is, my friends, the final set from this series of self-portraits. πΏ
I really hope you enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed creating them!
Now Iβm so curious which one of all six sets is your favorite? π
As for me, Iβm definitely a fan of this last one - that strange forest structure at sunset created such a magical atmosphere β¨
These photos honestly feel like something out of a fairytale!
I hope you feel that same energy when you look at them π

Hi Anastasia, I thought long about adding a comment to the last part of the wonderful βMavka seriesβ. Photographically, you have once again done a very good job. But I struggled with the photos of you interacting with the forest structure. Of course, your poses correspond excellently with the shapes of the structure. But the overwhelming impression that particularly some of these last images leave with me (even after 24 hours of studying and reflecting them) is connected with a very dark phase in European history: the terrible witch-hunt when tens of thousands of innocent women were sentenced to death and burnt at the stake. This is an aspect you certainly didn't even have in mind when shooting this series. And this thought probably occurred to me because our daily newspaper recently reported on the execution of the last witch in our area (centuries ago). It was just cruel at that time. This made the pictures (## 23-29) appeal to me and move me all the more, where you pose without this structure, because they show something of the natural, simple beauty that is inherent in human beings. Overall, though: thank you for the βMavka seriesβ! Apart from the Iceland pictures, it is definitely one of my favourites. And I'm glad that you are still alive ππ and found a new home in these mysterious and fascinating surroundings. π²π²π²

This series is very special to me, especially the last part with the golden light, it felt like the forest itself was shaping the moment, and I was just following it β¨ Thank you for your support, itβs truly motivates me to create more β₯οΈπ«ππ»

2025-11-23 17:04:21 +0000 UTCI'm so glad I decided to finally join your Patreon! With all these autumn forest pictures, I just had to. I love how you capture the connection with nature, everything just feels so magical and beautiful. It's hard to choose between the six parts, but I love this last one, I love the golden light and how you mimic the shape of the structure with your poses. Amazing work!
